I. WORK OBJECTIVE

The Subject of this work is technical and economical evaluation of the Second Baptist Church chappel located in Wrocław at 20, Łukasińskiego Street.

II. BUILDING CHARACTERISTICS

1. Building area

Chappel: 13,57m x 17,62m = 239,10 m2

Total area: 18,97m x 17,62m - 4,95m x 7,10m = 299,10m2

2. Usable area

Chappel: 12,55m x 16,70m = 209,60m2

Balcony: 2,60m x 16,70m x 2 + 6,05m x 5,20m = 118,30m2

Rest rooms: 2,75m x 5,00m = 13,70m2

Band room (garage): 3,50m x 5,00m = 17,50m2

Office room: 3,75m x 5,00m = 18,80m2

3. Cubic capacity of the building

239,10 x 8,80 + 0,30 x 239,10 x 310,00 x 0,5 = 2220,00m3

4. Two-level habitats built to the gable wall of the chappel by Habitat Service Administration of building area of :
